Recent Additions to the New York Muo- stnm of Natarel History. The Musk Ox—The Jaguar and Puma Marine Mammals—Other Rare or Unlque Specimens, - | New York Evening Post, The musk ox, Is without a doubt, the most unfamiliar anl of the entire Amerioan fauna. It {s seen roaming in amall herds over the uninhabited wastes of the extreme north; but a large sugges tlon of its habitat recalls circumatances of confllct between existence and starvation that may woll stand as sufficient excuse for luke warmness toward science at such a juncture, It Is not at sll singular that our expeditions fall at times to bril-;g the entire strength being often needed to care for the essentlils of the occation. Musk sheep Is the true designation of this rare creature, its affinities belng nearer the sheep and goats than to Bos. A glance at the animal shows the fea- tures of the Bos famlly, but the horns and the long halr are highly sug- gestive of sheep. The same may be said of its face, which is large and broad, and of the nose, which s particularly blunt and wide, The horns lia over the d forehead like a saddle. The specimen just now added to the mu seum in Central Park i 1-sized adult bull, about the dimensions of with long hair hanging from its flan and rear, of even length, like a pall reaching nearly to the fetlocks, and sup- plemented by a shawl-like cowl over the head and shoulders, which is somewhat curly and mane-like, leaving a dlstinct line of demarcation. The celors are & deep umber and rusty. The habits of this animal are much like those of the goat. Rocky, barren heights are its favorite places of resort. The food Is similar to that of the carlbou, grass in the summer and lichens in the colder season, The droppings are of the form of round pellets, recalllng the goats and sheep in this particular, as distinguished from the Bos family. The flesh is Inferior to that of any other ruminant, by reason of its musky flavor and coarse fibre. Musk sheep aseociate in herds of twenty to thirty, Calves are brought forth about the of Msy. An adult reaches the weight of about three times that of the barren ground caribou, nearly 300 pounds. Thia animal is distinguished Dby belng the enly specles of the genus In existence. Its specific name is suggested from the pungent muek-ltke odor that ex- hales from the ekin of the creature. It has been seen very far north, in the most barren regions, where it would seem Im- possible that food sufficlent to sustain it could be found. Though apparently clumsy, it is quite nimble, running and climing with great facllity when closely pressed. Several fossil specles have been found among the extinct animal remains of both hemispheres. Among other more important animals in the recent additlon to the museum is the jaguar. Asthese an/malsvary some- what in 8 iz3, and beauty of coloring and markings, Professor Ward was requested to defer sending examples of them and of the puma or panther, until he had pro- cured really excellent typlcal epacimens to fulfill his contract for supplylog all the North Amerlcan mamma Both are now in the museum. T superb looking beast, nearly as large as a medium slzed tiger, and larger than the Proad[leopards of Asia and Africa, its nearest allies. Two living examples are owned by the Central Park menagerie. A good opportunity is there presented of noting the charactertstlcs of this beast and of the leopards. Seen apart, the un. accustomed eye does not readlly observe the dlfferences. Compared, the leopard is seen to be lithe, its every part supple to surprising degree. Its tail is long and les on the ground as it stands, assuming graceful curves. The ekin is clothed In fine close-lying halr of rich golden color, clesely ornamented with black ring-like rosettes, The jsguar, native of South and Central America, widely separated In point of locallty from its allles of the old world, as compared to the leopard exhib- ita a striking robustness of body and limb. Its head is more angular, its neck more muscular, The tall barely touches the ground, pr but llttle more, The same rloh golden pelt, with jet rosettes, it h but the latter are supplemented by bl dots in many of the rings. 'The effect of this gorgeous coloration Is exceedingly pleasing. The jaguar, even compared with a leopard of its size, presents an as- pect of superior power; it is immensely robust, the leopard ls intensely lithe. The jaguar s the largest of the New World felldae. Though capable of cop- ing with the largest * prey, It more often feeds upon the rodents, several specles of which are, in fact, quite bulky. The capybara, the largest living rodent, is about the sfze of a bull-dog. creature, from its stupldity of hablts, falls a ready prey to the great cat. The peccary is & noteable crea’ ure in the life history of the jaguar, for the latter is contlnually making the mistake that small bodies are necessarily equally feeble. Not so with Fnccny. This lit- tle plg-like member of the swine famlly poasesses most amazing courage, which, backed b{l the ability to use abre-like teeth with ravage effect, usually effects in complete discomfiture for jaguar, The great ses turtles are easy prey for this formidable cat. Like the praotlsed turtle hunters of the troplcs, the jaguar watches for the appearance out of the the huge reptile, who reaching the extreme high-water line where she may safely de- posit her egge. We have often witnessed the actlops of the green and loggerhesd turtles at the Dry Tortugas, on tgn Florl- da Reef, The first full moon in the summer bringe the reptlle to llow waters. Timid and cautlou ms just under the surtace for now and again quiet, she rapldly nears the shore, and as awiftly as may be reaches the top of the beach. Onoe fairly on shore, nothing but force will prevent the consammation of her Intent, easily frightened off as she is before leaving the eea. When falrly ready to deposit the eggsin the consider- able hole made by theilnd flippers, the jaguar steps to the feast and enjoys a first course of fresh eggs—ready at hand to capsize the reptile when it -{nll move seaward, With an adroit movement the jaguar puts the great creatare hors de combat, and at lelsurs enjoys his more substantial meal ugon half-shell, for with most Incredible strength and dex- terity he rips the two asunder. Humboldt records an instance of a jsguar being osptured that ‘‘exceeded in size apy tiger” he had seen.

It hasa range extending throughout the continents from OCanada to Patagonla, We met with a large male on one of the keys of the Florlda reef which had swam soross a deep chan- nel from the malnland. In the upper countries of Florida 1t Is not uncommon. Most of our wild predacious animals are destlned ere long to extlnctlon. In view of this It is gratifying to know that in the great metropolls Ia preserved, in absolute security from fire, eclmens of them prepared In excellent and life-like manner. This Is true of the great moose, wapltl, and all the deer tribe. Superb specimens of each, male, female, and young, are there preserved. The collection of marine mammals of North Amerioa Is very nearly complete. A newly added one at this time s the beautiful harp seal, one of the hand- somest of the race. It singularly resem- bles the rare banded seal, or ribbon seal, which was added to the Museum Ilately. The coloration of the harp seal strongly suggesta the outlines of a musical harp. Of the collection of monkeys supplied by Professor Ward is a rare one, rende: with a definite number, almost unique by an act of extreme selfishness. On a cir- camacribed portion of the Island of Mada- gascar Is & certain grove of trees, once occuvled by a troop of monkeys of the African genus Colobur. No other ex- smples of this monkey are known to ex- Sir John Kirk, an English traveler his servant to kill and those were skinned and eent to Eng- 1and, where they wera by Sir John's orders distributed to several Institutions of nat- ural eclence, ostenalbly for the purpore of preventing any foreign museum from owning one. Professor Ward, who has a genius for securing rare things, and for attalning the unattalnable, fell upon a pecimen that was sent to an English in- stitation whose officers did not appreciate it. He secured It, and proudly checked off on his list of desiderata—subject, quadrums ; destination, American Mu- seum of Natural History; genus, Colobus; species, kirkl;—a specimen heretofore re- garded as likely to remaln on the list in- definltely, as “wanted.” This instance recalls the example of the Gibraltar monkey, a spectmen of which was lately added to the musenm. A small troop of these monkeys has In- habited the rocks of that celebrated prom- ontory for many years. Not more than ten or twelve were present when lately a Britlsh sergeant of the nelghboring gar- rison attempted to count them. Thisis the turtheet point north, and, indeed, the only locality in Europe occupled by monkeys, Monkeys were supposed until lately to be confined to tropical regions, but several specles of a large genus Ma- caque have been discovered in the cold mountalnous regions of Japan and Thibet. Among the unfamiliar animals re- ceived at the museum are several cota- ceans; a large dolphin, which with the white whale and black whale, two other dolphins and the several other large ma- rine mammals, form a rare collection. ey PILES!

Their father was an old man then, and he used to tell me overand over again that his sons wera trne mediums of splritoal power, and that they were called to that mission by divine will. Well, he being an old man, and I a boy, of course I be- lleved him, especially when I saw their inexplicable trlo 1 looked on the brothers with awe, and traveled with them for eight yesrs as an assistant. Finally, filled with & plous desire to serve the spirits a little mynelf, I got hold of a rope alone. 1 tled my hands the best I conld Imitate the brothers, to sort cf coax the i but they acted f they dldn’t ro for my services, and whether I wanted myself tied or untied, I had to do it myself. I studled knotaawhile and nd finally I got one of the other nts to t'e me, The re- sult gratitied me, for I found I could just manage to get ont, I kept on trying and found I could get out of the rope let him tle it as he would. Skeptlclsm had al- ready set In, and 1 soon found myself working at the other tricks of the broth- ers and could do many of them. this time Fay, who was the old manager of the brothers, found out that I had discovered thelr eecrets, and we at once started up a company of two and sfruck off on our own account. We traveled all over the world, and have seen all the tricks golng. You hear great stories about the tricks of eastern jugglere, and a great many of them are pure yarns. saw a newspaper artlcle just the other day that was full of them, such as a man throwing a ribbon up in the air, climbing up out of eight, falling down in ploces, and putting himeelf together, and all that. 1t fsn’t so. The European magl- clans are far superior to the Orlentals. “‘But it {s the mediumistic trick that I am bent on exposing, without hurting the bueiness of any reputable juggler. To begln with, I think that Splrituslism puts more people in the {nsane asylum than anything elss except liquor. But we can excuse the majority of the Spiritualists when great men allow themselves to be 8o easily fooled. For instance, I wasthe asslstant st a private eeance which the Davenport brothers gave in London to a number of gentlemen, among whom were Dion Bouclcault, Charles Reade, Alger- non Borthwick, Lord Burrzy, Capt. In- glefield and others. The brothers were both tled in their cabinet. Lord Burrey stepped up and leaned over one of them to examine the knot, when the other quickly slapped him on the back. There was a murmur in the room. These great men were struck with awe. Now, let me tell you, this rope trick 8epends upon mere physical dexterity, and the slap was made like a flash and pretty haid; but here is the description Dion Bouoi- cault wrote of it: ‘A small, white, dell- cate female hand suddenly appeared above one of the doors of the cablnet. It quivered for several seconds, and then, slowly descending, tapped Lord Burrey gently on the shoulder, and then melted Phil just in this way that otherwise sensible people show their senses to be decieved and their imaginations preyed upon. “The celebrated theosophist Engling- ton completely aomfounded me in Cal- cutta. Three of us were seated by a plaln round table. Two slates were brought In. I took the twoand washed and wiped them clean. He then gave me a little plece of slate pencil, which I put between the two clean slates. He took hold of one corner with one hand and1 took hold with the other. We then clasped our free hands and held the slates under the table. Presently there was a noise as of the pencll writing, snd when we opened the slate I beheld the following: “‘My name §s Geary. Don't you remember me? We used to _joke of this matter at the 8t. George. 1 know better now.” ] remarked, °I know no one by the name of Geary.' The slate was put un- der the table agaln, and the work‘Geary, Geary,’ was written several times. Other slates were put under too, and one was brought out with this on it; ‘I am Alfred Geary. You knew me and St. Leger.” “Then I remembered having met both men at Cape Town, in South Africa, four years before. Geary had died three years before. Geary and I had joked about spirituallsm at the St George hotel in that town, thousands of miles awsy. Well, I had to confess Idldn’t know how the thing was done, and paid my forfelt, But the mystery i now clear. I learned it eeveral years afterward. At the ball in Caps Town, Africa, where I per- formed, there was a janltor nsmed Hutchinson, a great spiritualist. Eng- lington had been there just after I left and, of course, Hutchinson told him about me, That's how he got his in- formation, for the spirltual letter and mediums are always preparlng themselves in this way. As to how he wrote the communication on the slate, I found that out, too, and have done it before the Siebert commisslon, which is Invest'gat- Ing spiritualism, and will soon report. They have had Slade aud Lord and a great many alleged mediums before thelr ridiculous belief, however much ac- cused for dishonesty, and, stranger stll, 1 belleve there s & chance medium who speaks In a trance who really belleves o his agenocy ; but thove mediums who make use of tricks are frauds every time.” e —— Rupture, Breachlof Hernia, New guaranteed cure for worst cases without use of knife, There {s no longer any need of wearlng awkar some trusses.
